Been at this game full time long time. Recently got a Spanish Goat lifesize and an Angora cape for my own collection.These I have little experience with.Wondering what you guys that do a lot of these think is the most accurate form. Research seems to have the only lifesize form. Wrong in both size and position.Is there another species that can be altered to a goat? Then Maybe I can Skip the alterations for pose and just alter for size and species adjustments.Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

You might try the ibex forms if they're close or you can try a mountain goat, or one of the wild sheep, but there's a ton of altering on that one. Those short stubby legs are going to be the problem you have to deal with.
Not much choices here. The Ibex is a good start. Other than that I'd rather go with a corsican or mouflon mannikin, depending on your critters size. A mountain goat... that would be a real challenge to alter I think. Van Dykes has a lifesize too if I remember correctly.
